Perhaps you should try cleaning your build tree and trying again? Anyway, it built for me and I've committed the patch to /branches/sarge. I'd be happy if someone else could follow through with the security team, though. BTW, I've downgraded this bug from 'grave' to 'important' since, according to upstream's security advisory, it's a DoS rather than an exploitable privilege escalation.
